Gordon Brown says he dobbed Andrew in to police

Former PM Gordon Brown has said that he dobbed former prince Andrew into “several UK police forces”.

Brown wrote a five-page letter to various forces, including the Met, Sussex and Thames Valley, which he says contained “new and additional” information from the Epstein files. The ex-royal was arrested this morning on suspicion of ‘misconduct in public office’ — which carries a potential life sentence but does nothing for Andrew’s and Epstein’s victims.

Brown doesn’t seem to have been asked quite why he had information from the Epstein files not previously available to police. Keir Starmer has helpfully added ‘What the king said’, insisting like Chuck that the “law must take its course”.

The whole establishment now seems to be getting in on the Andrew act as some kind of ritual hand-washing of its own metastatic part in Epstein’s decades of child-rape, trafficking and spying for Israel. Which isn’t how they’re describing it, of course — especially the Israel bit.
